Safety, yes. Profits, no. From an investment standpoint, the best thing that could have happened back when the Wright Brothers took to the sky was the plane crashing.

Seriously, if you took all of the profits and losses of all the airlines in the world since the Wright Brothers took flight and summed them, you'd end up with a net loss.

I agree Tony. That's why I'm always a little amused when someone pushes the idea that airlines are all about making profits at the expense of labor. In the history of airlines labor has gotten untold billions. Profits have netted zero or less.
